Errr hate to state the obvious but as a regular bus user when we do get any sunshine the side of the bus in the sun gets extremely hot. Won’t having a glass roof turn buses into a greenhouse?! Just what you want for a two hour journey to London! Has the person who brought the buses ever travel on one? Think I’ll be using the X90 in future.

I'm more concerned about the safety implications, given the Oxford Tube's track record on turning buses upside down on the M40.

It's *never* worked on any Oxford Tube I've ever been on! Much as I like the Tube's comfort, I far prefer the X90 for speed and its stop at Baker St.

The air con on the outgoing fleet of very similar Astromegas has always been fine so I can't see it being a problem on this build. The Neoplans before them were fine too, it was the 1999 order of Jonckheere double decks that had issues, but these were withdrawn ten years ago! Some of you have long memories. Safety concerns are a non-starter; overall glass roofs have been fitted to cars for a number of years with no issue. I think the Citroen C4 Picasso is one example but don't quote me on that!

Every since the Council realigned prices at the Park & Ride to match the cost of parking at Westfield (with the Express Parking Tag) - I've given up on both the X90 and Tube and just driven to London.
